224. The miserable day of Beasley

On February 20, the All-Star Carnival, which lasted for a hot atmosphere, finally ushered in its first game day.

The championships of each event will be decided on the 20th. All-Star three-pointers, personal skills competition, shooting star and dunk contest.

The four projects will be determined on the night of the 20th at Stamps.

The league has already determined the list of contestants in each event. Compared with other events, the dunk contest will undoubtedly be the most concerned event for each All-Star competition besides the All-Star Game.

The reason is simple. Dunk is the most exciting scoring method. It is also the most powerful behavior in the game that can drive the atmosphere, rhythm and morale. Otherwise, why would Blake Griffin be so popular this season?

Of course, it is because in addition to the stunning 20+10 data in his first season, he has been performing various dunk shows such as flying dunks and dunks in every game.

Slam dunk has always been the most popular and popular offensive method in basketball.

Compared with other events, this year's four-man roster in the dunk contest is also highly anticipated. Because it is not only the guards of Vince Carter's parent team, DeMar DeRozan, Raptors's defender, Serge Ibaka, the Thunder's blocking master, and Javier McGee, the Wizards' IQ man. Of course, the most eye-catching thing is the power forward from the Clippers, Blake Griffin, the dunk man this season!

These four people are almost synonymous with dunks in the league at present. Especially Blake Griffin, who is in the same class as Wu Dawei, has countless fans who are fascinated by the dunks he performed in the game.

So, not long after the season started, Griffin was amazed by the whole audience, and his call for participating in the dunk contest was particularly high. In the end, Griffin accepted an invitation from the league and announced the participation of this year's All-Star Game in Los Angeles, which made many people feel even more excited.

Even before the slam dunk contest began, most people believed that the championship of this season's slam dunk contest must be Blake Griffin. Although there are other exciting slam dunk masters, Griffin's popularity and the power of the landlords made people believe that this championship is definitely a sure thing for Blake Griffin.

Some people even think that it will be even less suspense than when Vince Carter won the dunk championship in early 2000.

This statement made Wu Dawei sneer because it was undoubtedly a bit too boasted in his opinion. However, fans have always been a group of emotional creatures. You can't expect every word they say about basketball is blurted out after careful consideration of the brain.

This kind of person is usually called a brainless fan. Every star has more or less such a group of fans. These people are generally loyal to the stars. Of course, the number generally depends on the stars' personal influence.

It's like Kobe Bryant.

Wu Dawei felt unhappy about some fans praising Griffin like this, of course, not only because Griffin, as the No. 1 pick in the same draft as him, was a direct competitor in a sense; but also because Wu Dawei felt that the dunk contest in early 2000 was the best in the league in history.

Because at that time, many of the dunk movements of Vince Carter, Tracy McGrady, Steve Francis and others were innovative, and the visual impact was not comparable to those of the current repetition of the predecessors.

After the first day of the All-Star Carnival, Wu Dawei's formation became much easier the next day. Although Raflin arranged a lot of interview rhythms for him, the time was relatively relaxed, and the reporters' questions may have been that after previous consultations, there were no too many questions.

The most mentioned thing is to ask Wu Dawei about his feelings about his first All-Star Game. And the so-called "hate" between people like LeBron James, Cameron Anthony did not appear.

This is one of the few times when Wu Dawei was free. After several interviews during the day, Wu Dawei naturally came to the Stamps Center at night. As a player in this year's All-Star Game, Wu Dawei could sit in the position before the exam to watch the game without buying tickets.

This is also a benefit to some extent, but Mike Beasley, who came with Wu Dawei, had no such good luck. In order to sit with Wu Dawei, the guy swears and pays for expensive tickets. From walking into the stadium to finally sitting in the chair, Beasley has basically greeted the top leaders of the league and the female relatives in their family.

"Do you know who I bet today won?"

Beasley was wearing loose clothes and looked hip-hop-like. Although this guy liked to call himself hippies, he had never had such a style, but he was increasingly keen to develop into street hooligans.

In Europe and the United States, the development of the gambling industry has grown extremely strong. Basically, there will be various betting companies in various types of competitions before the start of the competition. Alliances like NBA that have already gone to the world and have a certain influence are naturally the preferred targets of betting companies.

The All-Star Game is undoubtedly the most popular event in the NBA League except for the playoffs. Such events naturally quickly entered the sight of bookmakers, so whether it is a skill competition, a rookie game or a dunk game, bookmakers will openly place bets on this.

Europeans and Americans are also very keen on this kind of betting on sports events, because this allows them to make a small profit while enjoying the exciting competition. Why not do it?

Today, there will be four competitions: the dunk contest, the three-point line contest, the skills contest and the shooting star contest. Of course, the bookmakers have already opened for this before the start of the game. Michael Beasley, who has always been keen on dedicating his life to give money, naturally has to play first.

Bisley shook the receipt in his hand proudly, as if he was confident about the betting tonight. Wu Dawei shook his head, Bisley laughed and looked like he had an insider's face, saying, "I will win at least one tonight, do you know why?"

Wu Dawei shook his head, but he was indeed a little curious about Beasley's confidence. Beasley saw the doubts on Wu Dawei's face. He smiled and said, "Because my brother bought Blake Griffin today! The dunk contest must be this stupid guy!"

"Tsk! Follow the trend dog."

Wu Dawei spat at Beasley. He thought this 25 had some ideas, but he didn't expect that he would follow the crowd. However, Wu Dawei was quite optimistic about Blake Griffin...

The reason is very simple. After all, the All-Star Game is a program that the NBA League gives back to fans. All-in-one purpose is to host the All-Star Carnival, so naturally it will make fans happy.

As one of the hottest players in the league, Blake Griffin must have countless supporters, so Wu Dawei feels that as long as Griffin does not deduct it, he will win tonight with at least 90% chance.

"Hey, don't think I'm really just following the trend!" After Beasley was despised by Wu Dawei, he said anxiously: "I have analyzed it. Look, the big black guy from the Thunder can only jump vertically, so I think he should only have a few hits and dunks and it's all done; Derazan of the Raptors is a country bumpkin who has never seen the world, and I guess he should perform poorly tonight; at least McGee of the Wizards..."

Beasley laughed: "This guy's IQ is enough to eliminate him..."

"You're all nonsense, others will perform malfunctioning tonight? How did you know that Griffin won't perform malfunctioning?"

Wu Dawei contempts Beasley more and more. With this thinking, he still laughs at Damaiki's IQ? He is at this level...

"Hey, you have to know. That's Blake Griffindya! I guess he'll have a dunk tonight, maybe, is there any suspense??"

The dispute between the two attracted the attention of others. Michael Beasley's statement was recognized by many fans around him. Then the guy stared at Wu Dawei with a contemptuous look, as if he was saying that Wu Dawei was the person with the lowest IQ, and even Griffin would definitely win the championship tonight.

Wu Dawei ignored Beasley because the first shooting star game had already begun. Although the dunk contest was the highlight of tonight, all four games were opened. Naturally, it was impossible for Beasley to buy only one event in the dunk contest, and he also bet on the shooting star.

The four teams participating in the shooting star this year are Los Angeles United, Texas United, Atlanta United and Chicago United.

If the All-Star Game is mainly entertainment, then the shooting star is undoubtedly entertainment in entertainment.

So Beasley obviously shouldn't bet on this event because he bought the last championship team Texas United, but the final victory ended with Atlanta United leading the score...

"Damn! Nowitzki can average 20 points per game with this shooting percentage?"

The door went dark and it made Beasley very upset. Wu Dawei knew that Beasley had made a big bet tonight. Although it was not as terrifying as tens of thousands, it was at least hundreds or even thousands, which was not a small number.

After the shooting star's game ended, it quickly entered the next game. Although the individual competitions did not take long, it still took a long time to add the four events to some performances in the middle. Therefore, in order to try to complete the live broadcast within the specified time, the schedule will be tighter so that the fans will not be in a declining mood due to too long delays.

The next skill competition comes one after another.

If Black Griffin is the biggest favorite in the dunk contest, then undoubtedly, in the Skills game, Chris Paul of the Hornets is the biggest favorite in the Skills game. Paul, who is still famous, has even been named the No. 1 point guard in the league today by many people, and recently rumors about him have been rampant and have always been the focus of many people's attention.

Michael Beasley's natural bet on this order is Chris Paul, although Stephen Corey, Derek Ross, John Wall and Russell Westbrook are all very outstanding representatives of the new generation point guard in the league. It is undoubtedly that Chris Paul, who has become a Mesozoic player, is at the peak of his career.

When the skills match began, Beasley's depression due to the previous loss was quickly wiped out because he told Wu Dawei that Chris Paul would immediately win back all the money he lost in front!

But at the beginning of the game, Beasley was so angry that he wanted to curse. After Chris Paul appeared, the Hornets leader completed all the skills very smoothly from the beginning. The last time he played was the least of all the players. Just when everyone thought that Paul would be crowned the champion, Paul's layup made him not even enter the final...

"Do it! Do it! What's this!"

Beasley was stunned by the counterattack at this last moment, and then he became smoked because he knew that he had lost money again. Is there anything more depressing in this world than losing money?

Of course there is, that is, they lose money one after another and keep losing...

In the end, in the Skill Challenge, Stephen Corey, who was known as the cute god, won the championship in the Skills Challenge, but Beasley was no longer paying attention to such a result at this time. Because he was full of calculating, the next three-point competition was the next three-point competition.

He told Wu Dawei that in this event, his confidence in guessing was second only to the dunk contest. Although Wu Dawei remembered that he also said this before, he understood very well that he could not compete with a person who lost with a sudden eye...

The three-point competition also followed the Skills Challenge. Of course, the list of participants was equally gorgeous, Kevin Durant, Paul Pierce, Ray Allen, and James Jones.

There are famous superstars and unfamous role players, but now they all have one thing in common, that is, they will shoot three points.

Beasley put the treasure on Ray Allen on this item. The title of the first three-point shooter in history is indeed very intimidating, which is one of the reasons why Beasley is full of confidence in this.

That's Ray Allen. When talking about three-pointers on this planet, it's impossible to ignore such a name. But obviously, even God is going to do the right thing with Beasley today...

Because the person who won the championship was an unknown person, at least compared with the previous superstars, James Jones from the Miami Heat was undoubtedly an ordinary person. But such an ordinary person defeated many stars tonight and won the cup in one fell swoop.

Looking at Jones who was energetic on the podium, Beasley sitting off the court was completely deprived of energy. He was very depressed, so Wu Dawei was also a little unbearable. He looked at Beasley and said to him: "It seems that you are not lucky tonight. Why don't you give me your votes and let me pay the last item. It's better than losing all." (To be continued.
